What 5 zoo animals would best describe your picture you have for yourself? Me: -Wolf, lone -Okapi -Black mamba or coastal taipan (eager and progressive) -Cockatoo like blue-eyed or maybe a female orangutan -Tiger
-Sloth -Tamandua -Otter -Giant Panda -Tapir EDIT: I read this wrong; my picture is of one animal. So I meant based on me in general.
My picture best describes me, an old silverback, sound asleep under a log, and living with an even older female. This is Brutus at Little Rock Zoo. He lives with Trudy, 2nd oldest known gorilla. They don't seem to pay much attention to each other. Kind of like things in my house. Can't think of any others, most are way too active to describe me, maybe a sloth or giant panda. All they seem to do is eat and sleep.
You = an arcane, cautious and silent animal of the rainforest? I'm surprised you don't envision yourself as a Parabuthus scorpion - or a Steller's sea eagle...
Despite I am Scorpio rising sign (mysterious, deep) (and this rising often is symbolically represented with Phoenix - ''Steller's Sea eagle''), and Leo sun sign (loud, bossy - very generalised view) . Famous scorpio riser with Leo influences was Margaret Thatcher for example. I am just as okapi, mysterious, more often than not silent and very cautious. Does the bat is one of the animals that describes (symbollicaly) a picture you have about yourself? Or even more, what about snakes? what snake would best describe your picture you have about yourself,?
I'll give it a try : - Grey parrot - color of my hair . - Gorilla ( silverback ) - my small family standing on number 1 for me ! - Goliath heron - standing still, waiting for the right moment. - Yellow-throated marten - allways on the search for something intresting . - Cheetah - can be fast when neccecery. ( Grey parrot and Goliath heron can be replaced by one animal, the Shoebill but in that case I would only have 4 animals instatt of 5 ).
You're anything but mysterious, mate. ^^ And you would be the loudest and least cautious okapi, ever. Last time I checked, none of the animals you mentioned showed the meddlesome nosiness or easily distracted temper you're so prone to display at ZC. Maybe one of the coatimundi species is your prime spirit animal? To appease said hunger of yours for other people's private details: Mine would be neither bat nor snake; I'm not that one-dimensional as you like me to be.
I am just amused by the fact that: a) despite being the thread creator Nikola couldn't restrict himself to five species and elected to name seven species instead, b) blue-eyed cockatoo and female orangutan were named as roughly equivalent, and c) he thinks there is something about Black Mamba and Coastal Taipan that would make them "eager and progressive"
That said, and purely off the top of my head: 1) Tawny Owl 2) Eider Duck 3) Pallas Cat 4) Short-beaked Echidna 5) Yellow-headed Day Gecko
So the top of your head is tawny, downy, fluffy, spiky and yellow: we must presume that the rest is indescribable I can imagine that you hoot on quiet nights and coo if you go swimming during the day.
I should give an explanation (but before that, I would love to note that vogelcommando description was very funny - wich is a positive, thanks. I laughed a lot, also after your post TLD, and that's from gentle l.): 1. I couldn't decide between a parrot (blue-eyed cocaktoo) or a ape (female bornean orangutan) in respect to expression of curiosity and easy distraction, and socialization describing thoserespective fields of my self-imagined picture of me; It was late after more than an hour to remove one of them 2. I used both the black mamba and coastal taipan to better capture or express the situation (image). I see them eager - like eager to defend themselves after a threat (eg. black mamba may even creep fast after man) or eager in finding their pray, and progressive - because they move fast, and are aggresive and active snakes, not ambush predators, since I am a snake in Chinese zodiac born in summer (and summer snakes are sometimes symbolicaly described as, or identifible with, most aggressive snakes, like elapids in general ) content? (I also used tiger, because I am born on the day of the Tiger )
Ah what the heck: African Bush Elephant (Bull) - periods of rage Sun Bear - short compared to my relatives, and a love of sweets Burmese Python - likes to eat myself silly Giant Panda - for the most part, picky eater Thorny Devil - resilient, likes hot weather
Having pulled TLD's leg, I ought to play this game myself. But I don't think I'm very similar to any animal, so I'm going describe myself in terms of opposites. I think I am: quieter than a flock of lorikeets not as smelly as a maned wolf faster than a sloth saner than a hare (or at least I will be next month) and, as Yogi said to Boo-Boo, smarter than the average bear
Hawaiian Crow - Intelligent Hawaiian monk seal - Rare, not very shy, likes warm water and sun African pygmy dormouse - Small/short Golden cheeked gibbon - Energetic, colour of my hair Irrawaddy dolphin - Curious, likes fresh-water
Orangutan: a loner who can also chill Cassowary: a peaceful fruit eater that can disembowl when threatened Kiwi: nocturnal, just wants everything to be dim and quiet Hoatzin: lots of gas, not so good at the flying Wild Boar: smart but not refined, will eat just about anything
By the way, this describes me as a person. If I was to describe my profile picture then it would be: - Grey shanked douc - light grey colour - Ring-tailed lemur - tail is curved (like the question mark) - Przewalski's horse - hoof is the botton of the question mark - Arctic hare - white (question mark) - Grey squirrel - a slightly darker grey
